It only took two months to come up with this oneJune 15th, 2006 @ 6:33 am
During last night’s bath, The Baby peed in the tub. For the first time. I laughed so loud that he jumped and stopped, mid stream.
Only to finish up later on.
I didn’t laugh that time.
I just let him finish.
I’m a good Mom like that.
I was cooing over him while I was putting his pajamas on; I love you my Sweet Babboo.
That’s when it hit me.
I yelled out to The King that I had finally figured out what to call The Baby online. He said he didn’t like it. He said I should just keep calling him The Baby. Um, right-that’s not gonna work. History has shown that they don’t stay babies forever.
The Baby will here by be known as my Sweet Babboo.
Or maybe just Babboo.

I guess this is the official end of my sidebar. Damn the large comic strip.
(What am I doing wrong? I tried a new template and it didn’t fix it. I need to go and cry.)

The may not stay babies forever, but … I still call Billy “the baby” when I’m talking to my parents about him. The baby’s last day of third grade is tomorrow, by the way, you think it’s time I find a new nickname for him?

Everything about that is perfect.
Hell of a lot better than Bob.

ditto all the other people who love it!
As for the sidebar, you probably just need to shrink the comic so it fits in the width of the posting column. Argh!

That’s cute! I like that nickname! Can I snag it from you? ;-P I don’t have a baby or a hubby, or umm… I’m just gonna go around calling everyone that, ok? Ha ha…
Love your blog, Mama Babboo!

Ok fine. I’ll stop calling him Bob. I adore the nickname. To fix the sidebar issue, first go get a DQ Blizzard. Then hug your Sweet Babboo. Then…yeah, that’s where I get stuck.

Wait till your Sweet Babboo poops in the tub! I have a friend whose husband was taking a bath with their son when he pooped and daddy called out, “Emergency evacuation!” Thanks for visiting my blog today!

I love it! And the story about him peeing in the tub is classic.

Babboooooo!!!! I LOVE it!!!!
Yeah, I was having some sidebar issues several months ago, and I don’t remember what I had to do to fix it. I think it had something to do with the size of my photos, though. I had to go back and resize the offending pic.

Babboo. It’s perfect. Cute and innocuous, just like babies (until they go peeing in the tub!)
I was actually going to say something along the lines of Petunia’s comment, but that’s a moment that still haunts me, and I’m not sure I’m ready to dissemble about it in a blog comment yet.

[...] decisions November 8, 2007 Filed under: Blogger — Erika @ 8:23 am I am still trying to figure out how I want to structure this blog. I will probably use pseudonyms for my husband and son, so don’t get too freaked out. It’s hard coming up with a perfect fake name. I am also working on the “About Me” page (link in upper right) and considering if I want to add any more “pages” (like Pet Peeves perhaps? I have a lot of those). [...]
